So with the suggestion of my friend, I installed Malwarebytes and it found PUPs and I think I caught i glimpse of one rootkit. I uninstalled Malwarebytes because it was lagging down my pc and installed MBAR to check if the rootkit was stil there. After I scanned with MBAR, it said that there was no malware detected and I guess Malwarebytes did it's job; I tried reinstalling Malwarebytes but it keeps giving me "An error occured while downloading. Please check your internet connection to the internet and try again. For trouble shooting.." So my question is, is my pc good now? I can't really know for sure because I can't reinstall Malwarebytes. sidenote: havent uninstalled mbar yet and I'm gonna save the log on a notepad. Thank you

When I open my MS Surface (Windows 10) and start to log in, the screen goes black. I opened Task Manager, and noticed that MalWareBytes was not responding. I tried to stop it, but access is denied. Any ideas?

After deleting some quarantined files on malware bytes i have been experiencing stuttering in games that i haven't experienced before. i know its not a bottleneck in my system. i have a ryzen 7 and a gtx 1080. is it possible that i deleted something important? heres the report from the scan ________________________________________ Malwarebytes www.malwarebytes.com -Log Details- Scan Date: 8/8/17 Scan Time: 3:43 PM Log File: Administrator: Yes -Software Information- Version: 3.1.2.1733 Components Version: 1.0.160 Update Package Version: 1.0.2541 License: Trial -System Information- OS: Windows 10 (Build 15063.483) CPU: x64 File System: NTFS User: DESKTOP-32G234F\ericl -Scan Summary- Scan Type: Threat Scan Result: Completed Objects Scanned: 340303 Threats Detected: 8 Threats Quarantined: 8 Time Elapsed: 1 min, 25 sec -Scan Options- Memory: Enabled Startup: Enabled Filesystem: Enabled Archives: Enabled Rootkits: Disabled Heuristics: Enabled PUP: Enabled PUM: Enabled -Scan Details- Process: 0 (No malicious items detected) Module: 0 (No malicious items detected) Registry Key: 5 PUP.Optional.InstallCore, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\csastats, Quarantined, [2], [260986],1.0.2541 Adware.Norassie, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\Norassie, Quarantined, [2801], [361347],1.0.2541 PUP.Optional.SearchManager, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\GOOGLE\CHROME\EXTENSIONS\pilplloabdedfmialnfchjomjmpjcoej, Quarantined, [511], [183362],1.0.2541 PUP.Optional.ProductSetup, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\PRODUCTSETUP, Quarantined, [13883], [242047],1.0.2541 PUP.Optional.WinYahoo, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNET EXPLORER\SEARCHSCOPES\{2211d4a5-48d0-47f5-a7cd-81e861470f7f}, Quarantined, [71], [254682],1.0.2541 Registry Value: 3 PUP.Optional.WinYahoo, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNET EXPLORER\MAIN|START PAGE, Quarantined, [71], [311488],1.0.2541 PUP.Optional.ProductSetup, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\PRODUCTSETUP|TB, Quarantined, [13883], [242047],1.0.2541 PUP.Optional.WinYahoo, HKU\S-1-5-21-4847707-2613338921-2418126950-1001\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNET EXPLORER\SEARCHSCOPES\{2211d4a5-48d0-47f5-a7cd-81e861470f7f}|URL, Quarantined, [71], [254682],1.0.2541 Registry Data: 0 (No malicious items detected) Data Stream: 0 (No malicious items detected) Folder: 0 (No malicious items detected) File: 0 (No malicious items detected) Physical Sector: 0 (No malicious items detected) (end) scan report.txt
